Hey everyone! Today I’m going to be reviewing the Double Lasting Foundation by Etude House in the shade Amber. This is the first base product that I’ve tried from Etude House! I have a few of the their eye shadows and lip products and love them! Their Double Lasting Foundation is supposed to be saturated with pigment for effective coverage as well as extra adhesion so it doesn’t break, streak, or swipe off easily. More details after the jump! Continue reading “Etude House Double Lasting Foundation Review”→

So I’m not sure why I never reviewed this product before. The Laneige BB Cushion was my very first cushion compact. It is still my everyday go-to for natural base makeup. I decided to spotlight it now because they have recently expanded their shade range from just 3 to 6 colors! Anyone who has looked into Korean foundation or BB creams knows that finding any shades that aren’t extremely light is a struggle! Even as a black woman with comparatively light skin, it has been incredibly difficult; even the darkest shades most Korean brands sell are a bit too light. So I’m so glad that Laneige has expanded their range to suit more skin tones. The Laneige Cushion promises buildable natural coverage that moisturizes while color correcting. I’ll be showing you the wear of the shade Medium. Let’s get to it! Continue reading “Laneige BB Cushion Medium Review”→

Hi again after a bit of a break! Missha released their much anticipated M Magic Cushion last summer! Since they are known for their amazing BB Creams, it was a big deal. Alas when first released, it only came in two very pale shades so I couldn’t even bother to try it *sigh*. So you can imagine that when they finally expanded the range to include Honey Beige a few weeks ago, I crossed my fingers and immediately scooped one up! The Magic Cushion promises oil control, flawless coverage with no oxidation, and a skin soothing formula. Let’s get down to the details to see how it fared!

Let’s get to it! Continue reading “Review: Chosungah 22 Bounce Up Pact Foundation (Updated)”→

Hi again. Today, I’m going to be writing about one of the products offered by the brand NudeStix. I’ve been wanting to try some of their products for months now after I found them online. All of their products come in stick or pencil form for ease and convenience for those who want to quickly and subtly enhance their beauty. Their tagline is “Go Nude, But Better”. It sounded like a good option for easy natural looks. I’ve decided to try their Lip + Cheek Pencil in the color Sin, so let’s get to it. Continue reading “Review: NudeStix Lip + Cheek Pencil”→

I’ll be testing color #2 Sunny Flower. Continue reading “Review: Etude House Rosy Tint Lips”→

Today’s review is going to be the first of two products from Korean brand Son & Park. The creators Son Dae Sik and Park Tae Yun both started off as the top makeup artists for some of Korea’s most famous ladies before launching their own cosmetics and skincare line. They are said to have popularized the luminous, dewy skin look among the Korean populace. A more natural look that is slowly making its way West. You can read more about them here. For now, as my first review of their products, I’m going to be trying their Glow Ring Foundation stick in the color 23. Continue reading “Review: Son & Park Glow Ring Foundation”→
